Now here’s where the show really takes off. If I actually have any complaints about this episode, it would be that it is almost too joke heavy. That can become an issue with a series if it continues like that on a regular basis (ie Family Guy). Here though, it really just fits this episode […]
I started this last year, keeping a list of every movie I see all year (just the new releases) in order to form a definitive set of personal rankings come the following January. My 2014 list started on February 9th when I saw That Awkward Moment starring Zac Efron, Miles Teller and Michael B Jordan […]
It’s time, once again, for the TV on DVD series featuring new releases from Paramount (not technically limited to TV): Hercules Because the world Definitely needed a version of Hercules starring the Rock and directed by Brett Ratner, of all people.

Tomorrow (Sunday Nov 9th) is the long awaited “Simpsorama” – the Futurama/The Simpsons crossover episode. While I have been a huge fan of both shows for years, […]
